(( As much as I love my character Azel and want him to be remembered, just ignore this unless you'd actually like his achievements and the like. ))

Azel studies each application for several moments, humming softly as he reads them over. A shrill whistle soon escapes his lips, and a raven as black as the night sky lands upon his shoulder. He strokes the creatures wing for a moment before thing the applications to its leg, and sending it off.

Azel takes down th application, studying it himself for a moment. "Hmm...." He nods since, a quick movement of his head before sending the application off to Ramza.

The application is stuck against the board. Given name(RP name): Skale Bloodseeker (Skype name if you have one): nikoli.araya.bargas True name(MC name): Drone414 Race: Impure High Elf Authentic magic user?: Indeed If so what form of magic ye use?: Pyromancy and Telekinesis Do ye seek adventure, knowledge, and companionship?: Companionship and Knowledge mainly, though, I do enjoy adventuring. Mageshield, Vigils or Apprentice(if other detail)?: Vigil For Mageshields only: Do ye swear solemnly to put your life upon the line to preserve that of your arcane brethren? What combat skills have ye? Short Response for all Applicants, write how ye would respond: You come across a massive ruin of ancient design, strange sounds and lights emanate from within: Skale studies the remnants of what looks to be an ancient town, shuffling about in silence. He reaches the basement of one of the abandoned homes. Upon further inspection, he comes across the ruin, his eyes light up at seeing it. Skale kneels down for a moment, drawing the ruin in his notebook, writing notes beside it. "Hmm... I wonder..." Skale says softly before writing a small note and sending it off, waiting for others to come. Once they would arrive, they'd begin the study of the ruin together. While at a local bar you see two dark hooded figures in the corner discussing in a whispered conversation. You can't quite make out what they're saying but you clearly hear the word "artifact": After hearing the word artifact, Skale would slowly take a seat closer to the two men. After watching to make sure they did not notice him, he'd listen to them, taking notes on all the information he could gather. After some time of listening, he gets up and leaves, grinning to himself. Walking down the Anthos Highway you come across a masked man with a sword threatening a hooded figure, claiming he is a necromancer: Skale sits in the shadows, watching the man in silence. After many minutes, he discerns he is not what he truthfully says and steps out. "I have met more than my fair share of necromancers... And you are not one of them." He grins and would then try to handle the situation.

Azel takes the application down shortly after it is posted up and nods to Rolf. "A bird will be sent if accepted."

Azel takes the application down and slips it into his bag. "Expect an answer soon." He says softly.

"Feel free to apply as you wish." Azel says, looking back to Avella. "We do need as many students as possible though, you can be put down as both if need be."

Azel clears his throat upon her question before turning to her. "We are accepting many things at the moment. I am hoping personally, as one of the founders, that this Academy will teach more than just magic. I myself will be the head of the hunting, physical combat and training, as well as basic survival skill courses. With that being said, we've also received an app on someone wishing to teach medical training." He crosses his arms and smiles. "As of now, we are accepting just about anything that involves magic, physical training and combat, scholarly studies, and the like."

Azel takes down another app as it is posted up and looks to her. "You will be notified by bird if you are accepted or not." He returns his attention to the other applicants in silence.

Azel takes the application down and slipsit into his pack. "A bird will be sent to you," he says to the woman before looking to other applications.

Azel studies the application for a moment. He tears it down and slips it into his pack, nodding to himself.

I'm going to give a bit of background on myself, so you understand where I am coming from Oblivion I am generally the type of person to go with the flow in roleplay. With that being said, I prefer emoting a fight when I have to do it, because for me, it just creates more immerse roleplay. I don't mind doing PvP, even though I tend to be around 4 FPS all the time, getting the PvP done and moving along with roleplay will just allow me to do more things on the server that I enjoy. Of course, I would like for things to always go my way, everyone does, but I'd be willing to PvP or go with whatever the other person wants, for the sake of the roleplay. I love this idea Oblivion, I like it a lot. I can see why people are looking around for loopholes, but if you actually think about it as you've pointed out, there doesn't have to be a loophole. If there cannot be a way around it in roleplay, then it's simply voided. Now, I think it would make a bit more sense to stay instead of that or instead, with that, you might have to just do the PvP default. Thought it wouldn't solve the issue of fights that can be caused by not wanting to fight or just being PvP'd, it can help prevent it. I'd like to see something like this go through. Maybe, the staff/teams push towards a system where PvP is still default, but you have to, before combat begins, come to some form of agreement, or at least try to talk it out. If not, and a ban report comes up (as they seem to do daily) evidence will have to be provided if somehow during the Rp, rules were broken. That way it can be shown, before and after that an agreement was trying to be met. Obviously the point of this is to not stop ban reports, but if one were to have to come up, then there'd be a way to show that this system isn't faulty. As for what you pointed out, on the subject of killing, I once again agree. Killing is something that is physically and mentally taxing. For people to be able to just go about, murdering and watching murder, as if it was just an ordinary occurrence, kinda takes away the point of killing. Either way, this would help prevent the idea that murder is easy as well.

Does Rhia do anything?

No. Why? Because Magic doesn't have to special or rare? I get it, in Dungeons and Dragons, Warhammer, Lord of the Rings, and all those High Fantasy settings, magic was some power that was mythical and rare. Rumors were always spread about it, most mages weren't trusted and the like. But usually there are two types of people that have these issues with magic. Those who wish to have special characters to feel better about themselves, and those who are upset because something happened in character that pissed them off. Yes, not all players are able to magic roleplay properly, it's true, but not all players can roleplay swordfighting, archery, alchemy, and even talking properly. Just like magic, swordfighting, archery, and any other form of physical combat must be taught, you can always try the Mage's Guild, or start up your own guild. It's not something you just do, yes you can pick up a sword and swing it, but no you cannot start fighting three people at a time, swinging two blades, countering and parrying away for your life. Yes you can pick up a bow, knock and arrow and shoot it, doesn't mean you are going to hit your target. If you are saying you want apps for magic just because you are upset or because you want to feel special, I don't know what to tell you. We all come to this server for roleplay, promoting elitism isn't fun. If you wish to enjoy fun magic in a fun environment, where you actually learn it and it is taught. Sadly the Guild is currently full, but on a daily basis I roleplay with at least four people who are actually practicing their magic and trying to learn how to roleplay it properly. The ones who don't care to learn are either new players (and remember, we're all new to LOTC and just roleplay in general at one point) or the veterans who think they can just pick up magic without a second thought. Magic is more difficult than it seems, but locking it is not the answer. Though maybe it'll help a bit to make posts, fill out an app, and get a teacher, I'd request the same for other parts of LotC. You lock one part of roleplay, you might as well lock them all. EDIT: Instead of just creating a thread requesting it be locked, or complaining about it, why no try to make an in game Guild? There you can moderate and teach others to the quality of magical Rp goes up.

OOC Just so everyone interested in applying to the Mage Guild knows, we are currently at max capacity. With that being said, if you've already applied in the past and were not allowed in due to our being full, do not spam applications, as it will not help you with getting accepted. Once space is available for more students, you will be notified if you've applied.
